This is a painting/lamp made of earth pigments, acrylics, colored pencil, and shaped canvas. It sits as a corner piece, reflecting light off the walls from 2 wireless light bulbs - one facing up and the other facing down. Both are attached to the wood stretchers inside of the canvas.
 
Greg Dzurita is a New York City-based artist working in geometric abstraction. Working with a diverse array of mediums and textures, Dzurita has developed a geometric abstract language that unifies his practice. His paintings are rooted in geometry and architecture but also draw inspiration from Earth’s pigments and textures found in nature. Dzurita completed a BA in Advertising from Pennsylvania State University (2014) and moved to New York City, where he began creating artwork inspired by the city’s architecture and geometry. Dzurita has exhibited work nationally and internationally - in New York City (Field of Play, 334 Broome, Soho House), Kingston (One Mile Gallery), Denver (931 Gallery), and Buenos Aires (Proyecto ’ace). He participated in a residency program with Willow House in Terlingua, Texas (2022) to explore textures native to the American Southwest. In 2023, he participated in a residency with Proyecto ‘ace in Buenos Aires, Argentina, while exploring a new, constructivist approach to his work. Dzurita was enrolled in the 2024-25 Canopy Program, with mentor Tamara Gonzales, which is a year-long intensive mentorship program in New York City. This September, he will be participating in a month-long residency at Byrdcliffe Arts Colony in Woodstock, NY.
